• Mazda 2 (2011) - Front Suspension Really Soft Is This Normal? 27 Nov 2020 (Forum)
  I recently bought a Mazda 2 1.3 Tamura 2011.  It's a really good car for what it is.  I've owned a really good MX5 NC 2.0 Sport in the past which was fantastic, apart from it's slightly soft suspension. I've read reviews about the Mazda 2, and this car isn't really the great handling car that they suggest.

• Mazda Mazda 6 (2002 - 2007) - 2005 2litre diesel clutch flywheel 20 Feb 2009 (Forum)
  They can't do anything for a week. Two days later it's getting considerably worse and breaks down on the way to work. Back at the Mazda garage they confirm its the clutch, but say the wear on the clutch has caused excessive play on the flywheel. and they give me a new clutch and a new flywheel and a bill for for £1380... Their warranty people say the clutch- being a friction part - is only covered for 9,000 miles, and the damage to flywheel is consequential damage from the clutch and is therefore not covered either.
• Mazda 5 Front Tyre Wear 16 Mar 2007 (Forum)
  A four wheel laser laignment check at Kwikfit confirmed that the car was set up within tolerance. A visit to the dealer confirmed this, so, I and the dealer contacted Mazda Motors UK to lodge a call. Mazda's first action was to refuse to replace the tyres under warranty as the warranty period for tracking is three months (why should it be a tracking issue if the car is within tolerance?
• Mazda 323 - Knocking sound on braking 20 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  Hi All, Wondered if anyone can shed any light on this before I take it in the the Mazda dealers (ugh)? I've got a 99/T Mazda 323 which is making a slight knocking noise on braking at low speed (between around 10mph until the car comes to a stop). It seems to be coming from the front and makes a duh-duh-duh-duh sound (the sound is consistent and even, the noises are evenly spaced).

• Mazda 2 - Wind tunnel noise 13 Nov 2019 (Forum)
    It isn't the same as tyre or road noise. The dealer told me to take it to Mazda for a second opinion and the tech said he had never heard a noise like it in 20 years at Mazda and first thought -wheel bearing; then said it sounded like wind noise through a missing grommet after checking what the selling dealer had said.
• Honda Civic (2010-2011) or Mazda 3 (2009+) - First Car: Civic (2010-2011) or Mazda 3 (2009+) 9 Mar 2019 (Forum)
  However the mazda is lower in insurance and a little cheaper to buy, the interior looks a bit better quality and the speaker system looks better specd, which i would probably eventually update in the civic. I have read that cabin noise could be an issue.
